Can you call a Triple Mag Mount Awesome? Let's see

Today we’re taking a first look at the brand-new Gabil Triple Mag Mount — yes, they finally jumped into the heavy-duty mag mount game. I’ll show you what’s in the box, how the mount is built, how strong the magnets are, and how easy (or not) it is to route the coax and get this thing on the air.

Whether you’re running a mobile HF whip, a VHF/UHF antenna, or something heavier, a solid triple mag mount can make or break your setup — so let’s see if this one is worth the hype.
